Sony’s OTT Pay-TV Price Set At $80

Sony’s plans to disrupt the pay-TV industry with its own OTT offer have met some obstacles, namely the content owners who refuse to play along, leading to a price of $80/month and channel bundles that include the same niche channels no consumer ever wanted but always has to pay for, because of the market power of “big entertainment”. Originally, Sony had intended to offer a more customer friendly set of channels at a lower price, but they got “creamed” in negotiations.
